Rentals in Fortville currently list for a median of $1,995 a month, about 38% above the Indianapolis median of $1,443. The most common size on the market is the 3-bedroom rental, averaging $1,901 across 23 current listings; 4-bedrooms average $2,662, 5-bedrooms average $3,245. The median asking rent has moved from $1,399 to $1,995 over the past year, up 43%.
Over the past 12 months, half of the single-family and townhome rentals in Fortville leased within 25 days of listing, and the middle half took 13 to 43 days (56 homes). That's about 16 days faster than the Indianapolis median of 41 days. At the median Fortville rent, a home that sits empty for 25 days costs its owner about $1,660 in lost rent.
The median Fortville home for sale is listed around $481,000, so a home renting at the median brings in about 5.0% of its value each year in rent, before expenses, less than the Indianapolis figure of 6.9%. Home prices here are high relative to rents, so long-term appreciation tends to matter more to an owner's return than monthly cash flow.
Since February 2026, Red Door has leased 96 rental homes across Central Indiana.
